"My closet is a total mess. Help!" Diana Dekovich, St. Paul, MN

"I've been there: You open the door in hopes of assembling a cute outfit for the day and—bam!—you're assaulted by a hostile jungle of clothes daring you to enter their territory. But a battle with your wardrobe doesn't have to be the norm. I do this three-step cleanse twice a year—and it's not a ton of fun while you're slogging through, but I promise you will be so happy with the results you'll want to buy me a drink. (Gin and tonic with lime. Thanks.)"

Step 1: Send your family away

Step 1: Send your family away

"Tell everyone in your house to leave, preferably for a few hours. Give them enough cash to see a movie and get ice cream after. Let's face it, you didn't want to see Transformers 37 anyway. Now, crank up your favorite music and strip down to your underwear. Then take every item of clothing you own out of your closet. Every. Single. One. Throw your clothes on the bed, the sofa—wherever there's room. Piece by piece, try it all on. All of it. No cheating."
